Secrets I Can't Share

Verse 1

I lie through every word I say

A life you’ll never touch or stay

Hidden pieces I can’t reveal

A tangled mess I can’t unseal

Pre-Chorus

I feel you close, I feel the spark

But shadows scream inside the dark

Chorus

I want you, I need you, but I can’t be real

These secrets I keep, they won’t let me feel

I’m drawn to you, every word, every line

But my life’s a storm you can’t cross this time

I can’t stay, I can’t show, I can’t break free

The truth of me will destroy what you see

Verse 2

Your voice, your charm, it pulls me in

But guilt and fear are under my skin

I crave your touch, your laugh, your care

But I can’t risk you finding me there

Pre-Chorus

Every heartbeat says I’m lost

But the cost of truth is too high a cost

Chorus

I want you, I need you, but I can’t be real

These secrets I keep, they won’t let me feel

I’m drawn to you, every word, every line

But my life’s a storm you can’t cross this time

I can’t stay, I can’t show, I can’t break free

The truth of me will destroy what you see

Bridge

If I spoke it all, would you still care?

Or vanish like smoke into the air?

I love the dream of what we could be

But I can’t give you the real me

Final Chorus

I want you, I need you, but I can’t be real

These secrets I keep, they won’t let me feel

I’m pulled to you, every glance, every word

But my life’s a storm too dark to be heard

I can’t stay, I can’t show, I can’t break free

The truth of me will destroy what you see

Outro

I’ll watch from afar, I’ll keep my distance

A heart split in two, trapped by resistance
